Turning 34 Tuesday

Today was a wonderful day. I was able to sleep in past nine and then I ventured to the temple and did a bit of worshipping there! I also went and visited my friend, Shule, and her cute little baby, Elia. I always enjoy spending time with those two sweet girls. Shule had her birthday on Saturday, so I brought a little cake and ice cream and we celebrated together. It was a surprise and I enjoyed it totally! I wish I would have taken a few pics. Shucks.

I then came home and ran. It was a nice afternoon for a run. Chilly but nice!

Then I went out to dinner with my friend, Kerri. That burger sure was tasty. The celebration week of Alice has now finished.

It is Fat Tuesday. Lent starts tomorrow. Here are the things I am giving up:
1. Caffeine
2. Cadbury Mini Eggs
3. Swearing

My friend, Jane, suggested that I don't only give up some not so healthy behaviors in my life during Lent, but that I should also add a few healthy behaviors. So here is what I will add:
1. Weight Training(at least twice a week)
2. Reading More
3. Eating more veggies

So there you have it. I hope all of you have a very nice 40 days until Easter. If you dare, give up something. It feels good to be able to stick with it the whole time!

Magic Monday!

Took mom to the airport. It was sad to see her go, but I am so very blessed to have her come visit each year for my birthday. We had a great time together and I was spoiled!

I went and visited the boys seeing I was half way to their house(airport). We played hide and seek and it was a blast. Great way to spend my day off! We also had frozen yogurt, which is one of my favorite treats these days. It is yummy but I think I went a little overboard with the toppings!

Isaac and Erin took me out for some wonderful Mexican food before the big blizzard hit. It was so cold outside after!

Great pre-birthday celebrations!

Superb Sunday.

Sunday Mom came with me to church and then we headed up to the Bills for birthday celebrations. It was a blast. I thought Ezra and my mom were so dang cute. I love both of them. Thanks to all who helped me celebrate my birthday. It has been a great year and has been a great celebration week! Enjoy the great birthday singing below!

More Pics from Super Saturday!!

Here are few more pics of the run as well as a couple from Red Robin. It was a great day and a fun time to hang with so many people that I love!

Spamtastic Saturday!

The lack of pictures continues. The picture of me at the race, which is not my favorite self portrait, was taken by SLC Dad as I was mocking him and his photography skills. It makes me smile still. I totally ran fast today. I broke my previous fastest time by three whole minutes! YIPEE!!! You can and should read all about the run HERE!

After the race, mom and I went shopping. She was even nice enough to buy me groceries for next week at Sunflower Market. I totally forgot how much I love Sunflower Market! I think I am going to have to start making the trek there more often. I did find that sign in the bathroom very humorous. I wasn't actually tempted to put any personal item into the toilet, but apparently this is a problem for some ladies.

We met up with lots of friends at Red Robin for yet another birthday celebration tonight. It was a blast. They even sang at me and somebody ordered me some mud pie. It was nice. My mom took some good pics and I will have to post them later. For now, all you get is a blurry picture of me and my date, cute little Ezra!

Mom watched yet another movie. I am very proud of her ability to stay awake and party the past few nights. I must have worked pretty hard to get that fast time in the race, because I actually was the one who fell asleep during the movie. Funny. Now, I am kinda more awake and will partake of some TV. Have I mentioned how I love my TV lately? Well, I do! :)

Cheers!
